2014 in Review: Faithfulness

Looking back at the start of 2014, I would have never known or guessed that this year would be as monumental as it has been. I had a feeling that 2014 would be different, but I didn’t know just how different and amazing it would …

Lentil Soup

When the wind is blowing and the snow is falling, I like to whip up batches of things to keep me warm. One of my favorites is Lentil Soup. I recently talked with a woman who cooks delicious German food. I didn’t know this until …

Sometimes I start craving cookies in a bad way.  Although there is a time and place for them, I don’t always care for the heavy, sugar loaded, buttery cookies all the time.  A couple of days ago, I spied two over-ripe bananas and a bunch …

Favorite Protein Smoothie

After a hard run or workout, nothing hits the spot like a protein smoothie.  I have played around with many recipes, but this one is my favorite and go to.  I am now stuck in a rut and make this one all.the.time.  This is great …
